Are you being productive or just busy? Lets find out...

Ever feel like you're studying for hours and hours and hours, but aren't able to even make a dent in your university work?


It's as though no matter how hard you study, you're workload just keeps on growing!


If this sounds anything like you then maybe, just maybe you're getting 'busy' not 'productive'.


To find out which end of the spectrum you're falling on, ask yourself the following 3 questions:



Do you begin your Study Sessions with a proper Plan in place?


If you don't have a proper study plan in place then it's going to be all to easy to become overwhelmed, stressed and confused with what you need to do next and when you need to do it by.


The result? You spend more time trying to figure out what you need to get done, than actually getting anything done... you get BUSY not productive.



Do you know what your top priority study tasks are?


Even if you've passed the first question and do have a plan in place... a plan that hasn't prioritised your most important and pressing tasks first isn't going to get you very far.


Instead, you're more likely to focus on tackling tasks that are easy and the least demanding... causing you to yet again, fall behind on your workload and struggle to meet your deadlines.


Do you take regular Study Breaks?


If you're not incorporating regular study breaks into your study plan, then you'll not only fail to keep up a high level of productivity but you're also going to end up burning out.


So, if you want to get more done in less time, take regular breaks throughout your study days.
